Searching and searching and searching...
« on: 02 Feb , 2011, 06:15 »
Hi Gents,

IS the REVELL Typ VII C - 1/72 definitively out of stock (not the VIIC/41) ? I can't find it, it's sad, very sad !

If somebody's interested, i would happily exchange my 1/72 revell GATO for this kit !!!

If not, do somebody knows where i can buy one ?

BTW : i have two typ VIIC wood decks from Nautilus, and i only need one (if i find the kit).

PLEASE, HELP !

In advance thank you.

cheers,
Pepper.

good! I'm sure there are unbuilt kits sitting here and there, and maybe a few unsold from small shops..

Hi Pepper, I have the same quandry as you.  Prices for oop models tend to get inflated pretty quickly, free market ecomonics I guess.  The buy and sell sections on the Hyperscale and Model Shipwrights forums are other sources you can look at.

I spent about that for my VIIC in 2004. It was first available in the US, so I bought it for $40, plus shipping that was more than the model!!! Same for Gato. But if I waited for it to come to Australia, they inflate the price and convert and you pay almost the same.
